A curse will fall . . .
A hero will rise . . .

Princess of the Wild Sea follows the story of Princess Harbor Rose, who is cursed. Sheโ€™s spent her entire life hidden away on a remote island with her magical aunts, adhering to all the rules for being a princess. Now, there is only one more year until her thirteenth birthday, when a hero is expected to arrive to save her from her curse.

But, as with any story, there are two sides . . . and the curse spoke of much more than the uncertain fate of a single princess. It foretold of a dangerous foe rooted in powerful magic and a terrible war that could destroy everything if a young hero didn't arrive in time. The curse also mentioned a magic imbued with hope that could save everyone, but only if they believe.

With her beloved kingdom and island at grave risk, Harbor Rose faces a choice: Should she wait for the hero, or take matters into her own hands?
